Originally a coach house for the Tinakilly House estate, Oak Lodge has been transformed by its owners into a sprawling, 6,100-sq-ft stone-fronted mansion. Behind the brick-and-granite facade lies a contemporary interior, described by its selling agent as distinctly Mediterranean.

There are six bedrooms (five with en-suite bathrooms), three reception rooms, study, gym, double car port and cellar.

Set behind electric entrance gates, there is an acre of landscaped gardens with a southwest-facing sandstone patio.

Gadgets include a central vacuum system, underfloor heating, CAT 5 cabling and a surround-sound music system
